Overview

Establish scalable monorepo structures that support multiple interdependent packages while maintaining build efficiency, dependency management, and deployment coordination.

When to Use

Multi-package projects
Shared libraries across services
Microservices architecture
Plugin-based systems
Multi-app platforms (web + mobile)
Workspace dependency management
Scaled team development

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

{
  "name": "monorepo-root",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "private": true,
  "workspaces": ["packages/*", "apps/*"],
  "devDependencies": {
    "lerna": "^7.0.0",
    "turbo": "^1.10.0"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "lint": "npm run lint -r",
    "test": "npm run test -r",
    "build": "npm run build -r",
    "clean": "npm run clean -r"
  }
}

Best Practices

✅ DO

Use workspace protocols for dependencies
Implement shared tsconfig for consistency
Cache build outputs in CI/CD
Filter packages in CI to avoid unnecessary builds
Hoist common dependencies
Document workspace structure
Use consistent versioning strategy
Implement pre-commit hooks across workspace
Test cross-package dependencies
Version packages independently when appropriate

❌ DON'T

Create circular dependencies
Use hardcoded versions for workspace packages
Build all packages when only one changed
Forget to update lock files
Ignore workspace boundaries
Create tightly coupled packages
Skip dependency management
Use different tooling per package
